Data Tools

You can use the Artemis CLI to execute data maintenance tools:

The following sub-commands are available when running the CLI data command from a particular broker instance that has already been installed using the create command:

NameDescription
printPrints a report about journal records of a non-running server
expExport the message data using a special and independent XML format
impImports the journal to a running broker using the output from expt
encodeshows an internal format of the journal encoded to String
decodeimports the internal journal format from encode
compactCompacts the journal of a non running server
recoverRecover (undelete) messages from an existing journal and create a new one.

You can use the CLI help for more information on how to execute each of the tools. For example:

$ ./artemis help data print
NAME
        artemis data print - Print data records information (WARNING: don't use
        while a production server is running)

SYNOPSIS

                [--f] [--jdbc] [--jdbc-bindings-table-name <jdbcBindings>]
                [--jdbc-connection-url <jdbcURL>]
                [--jdbc-driver-class-name <jdbcClassName>]
                [--jdbc-large-message-table-name <jdbcLargeMessages>]
                [--jdbc-message-table-name <jdbcMessages>]
                [--jdbc-node-manager-table-name <jdbcNodeManager>]

            The folder used for bindings (default from broker.xml)

        --broker <brokerConfig>
            This would override the broker configuration from the bootstrap

        --f
            This will allow certain tools like print-data to be performed
            ignoring any running servers. WARNING: Changing data concurrently
            with a running broker may damage your data. Be careful with this
            option.

        --jdbc
            It will activate jdbc

        --jdbc-bindings-table-name <jdbcBindings>
            Name of the jdbc bindigns table

        --jdbc-connection-url <jdbcURL>
            The connection used for the database

            JDBC driver classname

        --jdbc-large-message-table-name <jdbcLargeMessages>
            Name of the large messages table

            Name of the jdbc node manager table

        --jdbc-page-store-table-name <jdbcPageStore>
            Name of the page store messages table

        --journal <journal>
            The folder used for messages journal (default from broker.xml)

        --large-messages <largeMessges>
            The folder used for large-messages (default from broker.xml)

        --output <output>
            Output name for the file

        --paging <paging>
            The folder used for paging (default from broker.xml)

        --reclaimed
            This option will try to print as many records as possible from
            reclaimed files

        --safe
            It will print your data structure without showing your data

        --verbose
            Adds more information on the execution

        --
            This option can be used to separate command-line options from the
            list of argument, (useful when arguments might be mistaken for
            command-line options

        <configuration>
            Broker Configuration URI, default
            'xml:${ARTEMIS_INSTANCE}/etc/bootstrap.xml'
